Math Jeopardy Contest

Teams of three or four undergraduates will compete in a mathematical version of the well-known answer-and-question game.

Treasure Hunt

On Thursday evening (March 10, 2022), there will be a Mathematics Treasure Hunt for students and their advisors. Students will use mathematics to solve clues and look for a “treasure.” This is a fun, non-competitive event that will give students an opportunity to meet and work with students from other colleges and universities. Check-in is between 7:00 p.m. and 7:30 p.m. with the event starting at 7:30 p.m. It is also greatly appreciated if math club advisors would be willing to help with this event. If you have any questions or would like to volunteer to help, please contact Julie Barnes (jbarnes@email.wcu.edu).

Graduate School and Career Fair

In this venue, students considering graduate school in mathematical sciences have opportunities to meet with representatives of various graduate programs. In addition, those seeking jobs in industry, business, or government in the mathematical sciences can meet with potential employers.
